Opinion: Love and Other Drugs gets a cast injection, Brokeback Mountain remains AfterElton's Best Gay Movie

14 Sep 2009 10:12:00 PDT

Written by noreply@blogger.com (Wet Dark and Wild)
AfterElton today announced its new 50 Best Gay Movies and yet again Brokeback Mountain tops the list and yet again it is by a landslide. What particularly struck me about AfterElton's piece on the film is its assertion that Brokeback is as real a place as any and I don't just mean a cinematic l...

Opinion: PoP trailer at D23 - we have tigers! - and Jake Gyllenhaal a superman on the moon

Here is what IGN says: 'A slice of light tears through the darkness, dissolving into grains of sand, blown away by the desert wind... A sweeping landscape of a far-off Persian city. A wind-beaten caravan making its way through the orange-lit desert. Dark, swirling clouds gather in the distanc...

Opinion: Jake Gyllenhaal: 'I am a fan of the unresolved cadence' - goofiness, snakes and having fun

Way back when, Kirsten Dunst said of Jake: 'Talent is such a turn-on. If he looked the way he does when and was a bad actor and not a nice person, I wouldn't be into him. He's just smart, thoughtful, goofy, sweet and not trying to be somebody he's not.'

Opinion: Jake Gyllenhaal - 'a dreamy loveboat whose body you wish you could drape around you like a duvet'

During the earlier years of Jake's career, comparisons between Jake and the older Tobey were rife. For example: 'Gyllenhaal, with Tobey Maguire's sleepy eyes and sly smile, is fascinating as Donnie, smoothly making the frequent transitions between normal, beyond-his-years angst an...

Opinion: Jake Gyllenhaal - 'a face made for the transmission of complicated messages'

Written by noreply@blogger.com (Wet Dark and Wild)
Time magazine had this to say about Jake's features: 'Jake Gyllenhaal has just those qualities, plus huge brown eyes and a fretful mouth, giving him the look of a spaniel afraid he's about to be swatted.' Obviously, Time wins 0/10 for observancy, for not realising that Jake does not have br...

Cosmo rates Jake's Hollywood Hotness and rave Zodiac reviews

Written by noreply@blogger.com (Wet Dark and Wild)
Emphasising Jake's hotness is the revelation today that one of America's top ten hottest professors would choose Jake Gyllenhaal to play him in a movie - suggesting that even hot profs aspire to Jake levels of hotness. I'd be interested to know if the UK has a top ten of hot profs...

Blu-ray Review: Zodiac

29 Jan 2009 09:34:19 PST

OH - Jake Gyllenhaal is a man possessed. He plays his character with such fervent desire to find out what is truly going on that we as the audience get lost in ...

Ang Lee famously told the Guardian that Heath was '"easy to photograph, easier than Jake," observes Brokeback director Ang Lee. "With some actors, you have to avoid this and that. Not with Heath." Nevertheless, natural born performer and photography fan Jake Gyllenhaal (his mother bough...

Opinion: Putting a voice to the pictures and making dreams a reality

08 Nov 2008 10:06:00 PST

Written by noreply@blogger.com (Wet Dark and Wild)
This is a far cry from the time when the very young Jake was being put through his action hero paces on the set of The Day After Tomorrow. Back in June 2004, producer Mark Gordon and director Roland Emmerich told SFX magazine, with not a little humour, how they set about making their vision a rea...

Opinion: Jake Gyllenhaal showing his feathers - Moonlight Mile and the Graduate

02 Sep 2008 10:28:00 PDT

Written by noreply@blogger.com (Wet Dark and Wild)
My personal feeling about this relationship is that it was both productive and prickly - and maybe a litle awkward - coloured by parallels with The Graduate and by Dustin's sense of paternalism for a young and gifted character actor. But also, Jake Gyllenhaal was promoted as the film's lea...

Opinion: 'The most flattering piece of casting since Colin Firth played Nick Hornby' and 'Do you ever wish you were in front of the camera?'

In October 2004, Jake was being linked to the role of author Toby Young in the movie How to Lose Friends and Influence People: 'It will see Young — famously short and bald — being played by Hollywood pin-up Jake Gyllenhaal, best known for The Day After Tomorrow and Donnie Darko... The story is ba...

Opinion: For Heath: 'It had not occurred to any of us that he would be leaving so soon'

24 Jan 2008 12:30:00 PST

Ledger made one film for which he will undeniably be remembered. When the news of his death was reported on the airwaves, commentators unanimously described him as the groundbreaking young Aussie who played the "gay cowboy" in Brokeback Mountain. This captures the press at its most lavis...

Opinion: Stunning Jake - Zodiac LA premiere - Dining with the Gyllenhaals

12 Jan 2008 10:37:00 PST

So without doubt (and no bias here, of course..), Jake is the most stunning of film stars, but what is he like? At the very beginning of March, the LA premiere of Zodiac took place behind closed barriers at Paramount Studios and without the presence of Jake. But, even in NYC, Jake may have felt hi...

Opinion: Jake - 'It's bigger than box office and awards'

28 Dec 2007 11:52:00 PST

Rendition, unfortunately but not unexpectedly, got little mention. However, the Kane County Chronicle ignored Zodiac and placed Rendition at No 8: 'The fall brought many films that examined our post-9/11 world. This is the best of them, a shattering drama about an American Muslim (Omar...

Opinion: The Culture Show, Rendition, Cover boy Jake and Donnie's opening night

27 Oct 2007 12:23:00 PDT

Rendition was discussed alongside Lions for Lambs (Robert Redford, Meryl Streep and Tom Cruise) and The Kingdom (Jamie Foxx). While the interview was being set up, we saw Frank introducing himself to Jake as someone who is not a film critic but instead a man who has reported on the war in Ira...

Opinion: Jake on GMTV (video), on Ellen, in Little Red Riding Hood, in Restaurants

19 Oct 2007 02:31:00 PDT

Rendition Day here at last! For all those who are able to see it, I hope you have an amazing time. Peter's Rendition surprise Jake cheers Reese up I shook Jake Gyllenhaal's hand' if this turns out to be true.... I can't even express how abhorrent I find the idea of a Brokeback Sequel.

Opinion: Rendition - 'bring plenty of tissues and don't wear mascara'

18 Oct 2007 13:16:00 PDT

BUT, that was not an ordinary experience, it was the culmination of a day of Bountiful Jake, on foreign shores, with dear friends, and in the company (albeit at a distance) of Jake Gyllenhaal, Gavin Hood, Reese Witherspoon, Omar Metwally, Kelly Sane, Peter Sarsgaard and others whom we ha...

Opinion: Jake: 'Do you want to smell it?' and Rendition makes waves

17 Oct 2007 13:07:00 PDT

And then there was the Japanese moment, not to mention Jake asking Conan 'Do you want to smell it?'. At which Conan did indeed get a sniff of the famous 'Jake Gyllenhaal Beard Effect'. Jake needs a comedy - Japan's not the only nation to have seen the light. And then there's the Gnarls Crazy momen...

TV Review: Saturday Night Live - Jake Gyllenhaal/The Shins

15 Jan 2007 07:24:31 PST

Written by Cameron Archer
I like Saturday Night Live's tastes in hosts more this season. The show doesn't stray too far from the mainstream in picking most of them - no one should expect otherwise from one of the longest-running television shows currently on air - but there's more of a focus on people who might do well...
